Fans of Colleen Hoover’s best-selling novel It Ends With Us will have to wait a little longer to see the movie adaptation, as the release date has been pushed back from February 9 to June 21. The film, which stars Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, is a romantic drama that tackles the issue of domestic abuse.
Lively plays Lily Bloom, a young woman who moves to Boston to pursue her dream of opening a flower shop. There, she meets and falls in love with Ryle Kincaid, a charming neurosurgeon played by Baldoni, who also directs the movie. However, their relationship is tested when Lily’s first love, Atlas Corrigan, reappears in her life. Atlas, played by Brandon Sklenar, was Lily’s protector and friend when they were both homeless teenagers.
